Reviews for Zumper – Apartment Finder

Please give us a way to report unrelated and irrelevant referrals. I keep getting alerts for apartments in champaign IL even I am looking in the western suburbs of Chicago or Rockford IL. No where near each other and I have no way of turning them off. I'll just delete the app if this keeps up. Also I keep getting alerts for places that don't accept pets when all my searches request pet-friendly listings.

Be very careful and vigilant if you choose to use this app to find an apartment/home. There are lots of scams listings (I can only speak for the listings I've seen for California) that Zumper doesn't seem to be doing anything about. I'm not sure if the screening process for posting a listing is lacking, or if it's something else. Unfortunately, using Zumper has been a frustrating experience for me- since a lot of listings are not real. Stay safe out here y'all.

i used a few sites, same message, pic s and pricing. zumper generated more leads, and the tenant!

There is no middle ground with their notifications. I had notifications turned off. I turned them back on to see if I'd missed anything. Without exaggeration, I received 6 notifications within 30 minutes. I uninstalled the app immediately. ENOUGH! There is also no way to stop receiving notifications that are of interest. It needs something like a "Don't show me this listing again" option.

Either I am a complete derp and have no idea how to use this app or it doesn't offer some filters that I would like it to have (like an option to Select whether or not I have any pets and how far from my selected city I would like to search) as well as the fact that I am being shown listings for rentals that are out of my price range. Why even ask for a price range if my results keep including $hit I can't afford?? Only had the app for 5 minutes and I'm ready to delete it!

I dislike Zumper after a few months of use. For one thing they barrage you with emails that are completely irrelevant to the search's you do. I counted 15 of them one day. Next issue is that there's no way to actually look up Zumper ID's that you find on other sites. There's also this fun feature where it automatically sent a bunch of messages to "similar" properties. In my case we're looking for a pet friendly house. It sent 7 messages to non pet friendly apartments for me. Overall, pretty bad.

This is the best app of it's kind I've found. Most issues with it come from the posters not correctly setting up the filters for their listings (Ex. Not flagging their pet friendly building as pet friendly), which is a bit annoying but no fault of the developers. Easy to set up and save filters, favourites, and create alerts. Helpful average pricing over time charts are a plus.

I use it a lot when comparing potential apartments. Love the 'Save search/ filter' option. Only issue is that I get push notifications for places that don't fit my filters (pet friendly). I've been getting places that look great & would fit the budget only to find out that it is not pet friendly. I've checked all my saved searches & they all have 'Pet Friendly' as a filter. I also get updates on these same apartments. Maybe a user function to put selected postings on a 'no- notification' list?

This is a scam in Canada. It doesn't allow actual landlords to list anything, and the company just scrapes and steals listings from other services. There's also NO support. They'll tell you to email support and its literally just a template response regardless of the issue; nobody is reading them.

Inventory is really limited and using even one basic filter ends up filtering out 99% of the listings. Prices are way too high for what the hosts are offering. This app just doesn't measure up to Airbnb or PadSplit. Uninstalling. Won't be back.
